Techniques Used

Kasuri weaving

Kasuri weaving (kasuriori, “blurred weave”) is a type of ikat weaving done with threads that have been resist dyed, leaving sections of the thread undyed. The threads are then aligned and woven to create stripes, checkered patterns, or pictorial motifs.

Monsha figured gauze

Monsha “figured gauze” combines sections of plain and leno weaves to produce an open fabric with decorative motifs. Sha is a type of leno or cross weave in which spiraling pairs of mated warp threads are twisted around consecutive weft threads to produce a light, transparent fabric with an open weave structure.
